    I notice the latest build is dated 2017-02-15. Would this build just be a rubber stamp of the original build from one month ago? Is there a changelog for the later build?

    I can only see the following: lineage-14.1-20170205-UNOFFICIAL-hero2qltechn.zip, which has the build date as: 20170205 (5th Feb 2017).

    There is no changelog from travis82 (the developer of this ROM) for this build.

    The link to the rom lists 3 roms dated in February. Would these just be re-builds of the original rom released on December 11th? Or would this include various bug fixes etc? Before I invest time on this I need to get some idea of what is currently in the build. If anyone has installed the build from the 7th and it’s working, what is working?

    Thanks,

    So Im confused by this. This is posted under the forum Galaxy S7 Edge – G935F which does have an unlocked bootloader. However the G935F does NOT have a Snapdragon processor. The models that have Snapdragon all have locked bootloaders. So please clear up a few questions for me? Is this a snapdragon rom? How do you unlock the bootloader? Or is this for G935F (Exynos)?

    Sorry for the confusion.
    This Lineage OS 14.1 is for Galaxy S7 Edge SNAPDRAGON variant, SM-G9350 if I am not wrong. Updated the forum name accordingly.

    No need to unlock the bootloader. Just download the ODIN flashable TWRP zip file and flash it via ODIN application, that’s it.
